(2025)-PF Bryson Tiller to Kansas

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Overtime Elite hosted a Pro Day and it brought in 80 NBA scouts and GM's.  The following is Joe Tipton's comments on how Tiller looked.

What immediately stands out about Bryson Tiller is his size, fluidity, and composure. The sophomore is never rushed, plays within himself, and never appears to be intimidated. He’s unafraid to put his head down and get to the basket. The next step in his game is continuing to develop a go-to move and expanding his offensive arsenal. This is one to keep an eye on the 2025 class, as the upside is visible.

And here's Eric Bossi's comments on Tiller from Pro Day

Of the college eligible players, sophomore power forward Bryson Tiller is the highest ranked prospect at OTE and he more than lived up to his No. 4 overall ranking by 247Sports in the class of 2025. Outside of the projected 2023 Lottery picks Amen Thompson and Ausar Thompson, I felt that Tiller represented himself and performed the best of anybody in the building.

During his freshman season and through the last spring and summer, Tiller impressed with his overall skill and feel for the game. He shined in those areas again. He picked up instruction quickly during drills, he made shots from all over, showed off great footwork in the post and looks to have gotten significantly stronger since July. Tiller isn’t an overwhelming athlete but his skill and feel outweigh any possible concerns there. Several NBA scouts asked me who Tiller was and where he ranked in his class and the general consensus was “makes sense” when told he’s currently considered among the top five.

There are reported scholarship offers from the likes of Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Georgie Tech, Houston, Indiana, Missouri, Ole Miss, Stanford and others but Tiller declined to discuss any specific programs.

The Daily Hoosier just reported Tiller will be in Bloomington for the Kansas game.  Shaping up to be a really big recruiting weekend.

I believe He and Sonon are both reclassify candidates to 2024.  Am I mistaken?

From two years ago:

Indiana: “I have a friend who recently committed to Indiana, Jakai Newton. We are teammates on the circuit, and he is a really tough player, so I know what they are looking for to build their team.”
